Hi,
I thought you might be interested in reading about our new project management tool for Microsoft Outlook that was recently reviewed by an independent blogger. More information can be found here: http://www.genuinecuriosity.com/genuinecuriosity/2009/07/a-new-option-for-project-management-in-outlook.html

Kevin,
Your product has peaked my interest. My employer is in the process of converting from GroupWise to Outlook, and I am not scheduled for the conversion until September. I do not know if there are competing products out there, but I could really use something to help me tame the vast number of messages and documents that circulate when my projects are in an active phase. And, as I am in the process of updating my personal machines, I have not installed the new version of Outlook at home either, so I am not in a position to trial the software. Can you tell me what happens to the data/files/messages when your software is uninstalled? I am not certain how our IT people would take to an “add-on”, but I guess that would depend on how it interacts with Outlook. Any information would be most helpful.

If you are in the market for appropriate Outlook add-ins, may I recommend Clear Context. http://www.clearcontext.com/
I couldn’t live without it. The task management in particular is excellent.

Jack,
I searched after I posted and saw your post. This program looks interesting as well. My biggest challenge will most likely be our IT staff. I work in municipal government, and we are limited as to what can be installed on our machines.

I’m in exactly the same situation. You can install Clear Context without administrator rights.
